Spaghetti Squash and Veggie Sauce - Gluten and Dairy Free

When starting to eat this meal my hubby, ever the adventurous eater, proclaimed, "I usually try to eat the salad first, but with this meal I don't even know where to begin!"

So. Many. Veggies.

This is a good thing, right? RIGHT? Right.

It soothes my veggie loving heart. 
Spaghetti Squash and Veggie Sauce - Gluten and Dairy Free 
~ 1/2 lb. of ground beef
chopped bell peppers, any or all colors
1 finely diced carrot
1 finely diced celery
chopped mushrooms (or canned)
1 can of stewed tomatoes (chop the tomatoes up if desired)
2 cans of tomato sauce
1 tsp. oregano
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper
1 tsp. garlic powder
2 tsp. sugar

Brown ground beef.  Add veggies and cook until tender. Add spices and tomato sauce.  Simmer.

Serve on top of cooked spaghetti squash.

Spaghetti squash cooked in the microwave:
Slice squash open and clean out seeds.
Place cut side down in a dish with about 1" of water.
Cook 5-10 mins (per half) depending on size of squash.
